I'm older now, and simple beer pleasures are the most meaningful to me. They tend to be encountered locally. It is my aim to get unplugged and explore some of them, slowly and thoughtfully. I'd tell you where it's leading, except that I've no idea ... and that's the whole point of the journey: To find out.

MilkWood, opening at Actor's Theater in February.

MilkWood, described as a "modern speakeasy with cuisine that will explore Southern Bar Food with an Asian Pantry," is Chef Edward Lee's new project at Actor's Theater, located in the epicenter of downtown Louisville.

Chef Lee's new venture will have four regional craft brews on tap, and at least at the outset, one of them will be NABC's Black & Blue Grass. When we conducted a tasting with Chef Lee and staff, he commented that Black & Blue Grass would play well with the "Asian Pantry" concept, and I couldn't agree more.
